Should this handler be for db admins only? Since by simple list of all
local documents the replication checkpoints becomes disclosed and any user may
touch each without restrictions. Currently they are in safe just because it
doesn't simply to guess their id. I think until proper _local docs
validate_doc_update handler they shouldn't be disclosed to the world expect
database admins who are directly interested in them.
